Scarves, mittens, candy canes,
Choirs singing sweet refrains;
Cocoa, cookies, mistletoe,
Laughter by the fire’s glow.

Random kindness, generous cheer
Infuse the hearts of all held dear;
Loved ones present, others missed,
Presents checked off Santa’s list.

May childlike wonder never leave our sight,
To all a peaceful blessed night.
